Two distinctly different house keys switch places repeatedly in a flashy five-phase, fast-paced, in-their-face, Monte-type routine-finishing clean in the spectator's tightly-clenched fist.

FREAKEY also includes a dozen more clever and captivating bonus routines by some of magic's key players:

Paul Harris

David Acer

Max Maven

Mark Jenest

Danny Archer

Michael Weber

Thom Peterson

David Gripenwaldt

and John "This-Product-Wouldn't-Be-The-Same-Without-Him" Kennedy.

Freakey comes complete with everything you need: a precision-crafted gimmicked key, an elegant easy-to-open key fob and an instructional DVD with numerous over-the-top, on-the-street performances. Put FREAKEY in one pocket and Hundy 500 in other, and you'll be ready On-The-Spot and Off-The-Cuff.

Leave Your Playing Cards At Home. This Is The Perfect Opener...Or Closer.

Obviously, Gregory Wilson's idea about the whole, "Who actually carries these props at any given
time" didn't get through to my fellow reviewer, but that's ok, because perhaps it's best they aren't
the one performing it. They've already stated they don't do the trick in the first place, so why
would they do something similar? If you didn't really do anything with the original, why buy
something that's obviously going to be similar? Especially when it SAYS it's a copper/silver
routine?

Anyways, the trick is a fantastic one, and with so much going on in the bonus
department, well, you really can't go wrong with this. I'd recommend it to anyone who wants a solid
take anywhere do anytime routine :) It's quite well made, and I really like how different the keys
look. Perfect choice too, because most keys look pretty similar to one another anyways, so genius
thinking+Gregory Wilson=EPIC magic stuffs.

i really like the copper silver trick. it's the greatest thing to get into peoples heads and get
them completely confused. i don't carry centavos and English pennies as he mentions in the DVD (are
either of them even in circulation?), so i've rarely been able to perform this trick.

the
gimmicks, including a key fob, are high quality--he mentions in the DVD that you're not paying for a
toy. this will be in my pocket all the time.

the only thing i could even say is the DVD
isn't set up to sit and watch all the way through. nearly all the individual segments are only a few
minutes long. one of the performance bits shows the spectator very nearly exposing the gimmick, and
Greg Wilson is so smooth with audience control, no one notices.

I can understand how some may gripe about the price tag. However, I love this effect. The DVD has
alternate effects from other pros (with the keys)- "World's Greatest Magic" style. Great touch.
Great tips. Great handlings. Extra points for the assistant in the video. I don't work with coins,
let alone obscure coins that I have to store somewhere odd. These keys are the great alternative to
similar coin routines.

Hope there's refills of keys only for when I overuse and rub away
the plating on these keys. I wouldn't pay this price twice. Though I would consider it once if I
were you.

In the video with Rick Lax he mentions that this prop is expensive but that it's worth it because
you will use it and ...

It's True.

YOU WILL USE THIS!

I mean come on
they're keys! So easy and natural to carry/bring into play! Something this easy to get into deserves
to be in your reperoire.

Gregory Wilson has an awesome routine. Get the actions down and
perform it.

Some Tips:
-Don't use Greg's "because we weren't playing for money" line.
-At the end of the routine after people react say "and I'll take that back as it is my house
key."
-About a minute after the routine is over and your simply conversating with your
spectator say "that was crazy how I made the gold key appear in your hand!"
-Purchase
key-identifier and place them on your freakeys.

To close please know - this is a worker.
Get it, perform it, and become awesome.

This is my first review here in PenguinMagic and I'm really excited about FREAKEY.

Besides
the props, you get a high quality DVD, full of routines and different handlings of the effect.
Several perfomance's styles, several contributors and in depth explanations of every single move.

As of the props, their quality is really top notch!
In regards to the g*******d KEY,
you have not to be afraid it may wear out in the long run. As of the other two usual keys which is
being provided, they are as well well manufactured.

You simply can't go wrong with FREAKEY
in your pockets.

The only thing that I haven't confirmed yet, is the kind of the elegant
key fob that comes with the whole package.

Although the the key fob shown on the DVD cover
has an arc-shape (and if my memory serves me well, the same shape is shown several times in the DVD)
the one I received has a vertical form and shape (it looks like a vertical rectangle).

I
don't know if this is the shape of the key fob that comes with the upgrade version. Any help from
any of the Penguin staff members would be much appreciated.

IMHO, I like most the one you
can see on the DVD cover because it looks more fancy, less bulky and more practical in general.

Unforunately, the one that comes with the DVD looks like a steely rod! But it works
perfectly and I think I can live with it!

So, FREAKEY by Greg Wilson is highly recommended!

As of the price, I agree that it could be lower. However

I do not know
anything about the first edition of the effect but this second upgraded edition is just awesome.

For some reason I bought this and it sat in a drawer for a year. I ran into it again the other day,
pulled it out and started to learn it.

The props are simple but absolutely perfect. And
the routine is devilish. There is NO paddle move used (I think there's one in the extras, but it
would be stupid, you'd see the serration on the key change) but a set of completely natural,
justified moves that seem to keep all sides seen all the time, and some turnovers for if you want to
be super scrupulous.

It only gets four stars, because for the price, I'd expect to get at
least one ungimmicked key, but preferably one ungimmicked key of each type - so you could hand out a
set of three for examination!

This product is out of stock at the moment, and I never reviewed it. I am doing so because of two
bad reviews to the trick, that sound to me pretty much like the same voice asking to reduce the
price. I understand. The price was a bit high. However, this gimmick is a keeper. I've been carrying
it around for 3 years, and it is in my pocket right now. I know that this is a stand alone or a
closer that I can pull out at any moment and get reliable great reactions. Keep this and a ring
flight with your keys, and you are set. I hope Gregory Wilson will continue to produce these.

This is without a doubt worth it. I carry this around with me all the time now. It's my go to
closing effect performing on the street.

One slight problem. I've had this for about two
weeks and the key fob has broken twice. I've had to screw it back together when it comes apart. I'm
not sure why it happens, but that's the only downside I've encountered.

I bought this effect about 2 weeks ago, I practised it for 1 day and then I went to the street to
perform it, it fooled all the people! the gimmick is high-quality, it is very easy to do the trick
and i love that, with a little bit of practise, They can examine both keys before and after the
effect.
Ijust can say that every penny I spent on this trick was worth it, and I totally
recommend it for all the people.
